Guillermo Rigondeaux oppmuntret av Oscar de la Hoya kommentar om Leo Santa Cruz forening kampen

MIAMI (Jan. 28, 2015) – World Boxing Association (WBA) Super, World Boxing Organization (WBO) og The Ring Magazine super bantamvekt mester Regning “The Jackal” Rigondeaux (15-0, 10 KOs) er oppmuntret av rapporter at World Boxing Council (WBC) hjemmelsinnehaver Leo Santa Cruz‘ promoter, Oscar de la Hoya, mener en Rigondeaux-Santa Cruz forening kampen må skje.

 

Den 34-år gamle Rigondeaux, en to OL-gullvinner, har vært begrenset til Asia for sine to siste kamper, senere i lav profil kampene, på grunn av mangel på ønske av noen verdensklasse super bantamvekt å utfordre den cubanske stjerne.

 

Rigondeaux stoppet WBO Nei. 6 rangert challenger Hisashi Amagasa (28-4-2, 19 KOs) etter 11 rundene i Osaka, Japan denne siste nyttårsaften. I juli i fjor, “Linje” slått ut Sod Kokietgym (62-2-1) i åpningsrunden av deres kamp i Macao, Porselen.

 

“Det er godt å vite at Santa Cruz’ arrangøren har uttalt at vår forening kampen må skje,” en ekstatisk Rigondeaux sa. “Jeg ønsker å legge sin (WBC) grønt belte til min WBA og WBO mesterskap samling. Jeg har ønsket denne kampen for noen tid. La oss håpe dette er ikke bare tomt prat. La oss gjøre det!”

 

Rigondeaux vs. Santa Cruz (29-0-1, 17 KOs) ville være et klassisk oppgjør mellom etnisk boksing erkerivalene, henholdsvis, Cubanske og meksikanske jagerfly som nå bor i Miami og det sørlige California.

 

“Jeg har kontaktet gullgutten Kampanjer mange ganger for å spørre om å lage en kamp mellom "Rigo’ og Santa Cruz,” Rigondeaux’ sjef Gary Hyde lagt. “De alltid svarte med å si at de var interessert i å gjøre denne kampen, men ikke på den tiden. I går, etter å lære Oscar sa denne kampen må skje, Jeg nådde ut til Golden Boy og kan bekrefte at forhandlingene har startet. Meg selv og Caribe Kampanjer, 'Rigo s’ promoter, vil forsøke å gjøre denne kampen skje så snart som mulig.

 

“Når 'Rigo’ slår Santa Cruz for sin tredje VM-tittel belte – fjerde hvis du teller The Ring Magazine – en kamp mot International Boxing Federation (IBF) mester Carl Frampton (19-0, 13 KOs) måtte skje for å kunne fastslå den ubestridte super bantamvekt mester av verden.”
